Crab mousse
Instructions
You soften the gelatine in a bowl filled with cold water, then drain, squeeze it and let it dissolve in your boiling crab.
Pour it into the Blender jar, in which you will have already placed the crab meat, and operate the unit for a few minutes, in order to obtain a smooth puree.
This passes through a fine sieve, you collect the proceeds into a bowl and place it in a larger bowl filled with ice.
Generously season the mixture with salt and cayenne pepper and knock it with a whisk until well chilled.
